aseballers Sweep Iowa State In Four Games
Host Lamar Tech In Doubleheader Today At 1 p.m.
By BILL HENRY
lalalion Sports Editor
I Coach Tom Chandler may have
pded a few new gray hairs but
Uiefans on hand for A&M’s home
Isories opener with Iowa State
liere never bored as the Aggies
Iswept the four-game series by a
Itotal of five runs.
Catcher Mike Frazier, having
Igone hitless in 18 times at bat
In the Aggies’ exhibition series
lajainst the Kansas City Royals
(Academy, supplied heroics with
his bat by knocking in two game
winning hits in the two games he
played.
In Friday’s second game, A&M’s
Bobby Falcon and the Cyclones’
Bill Varner had a pitching duel
with neither team scoring going
into the bottom of the seventh
and last inning.
Frazier struck a two-out line
drive single past the outstretched
glove of the Iowa State first
baseman scoring Sandy Bate
from second giving the Aggies
a 1-0 decision.
In Saturday’s second game,
with the score tied 3-3 in the
10th inning, Frazier drilled one
to left field with the bases loaded
and knocked in Gene Reinarz who
started the inning off with a
single giving A&M a 4-3 win.
Today, the Aggies hope to keep
their string alive hosting Lamar
Tech on Kyle Field for a double-
header beginning at 1 p.m.
Jackie Binks, who allowed four
runs and seven hits in Friday’s
opening game against Iowa State,
is expected to start the first
game. Falcon, who struck out 12
while allowing only one hit in
Friday’s second game, is expected
to pitch the nightcap.
Falcon, JC transfer from Pa
nola, led the nation’s junior col
lege pitchers last year in strike
outs. The lone hit suffered against
him was achieved by the first
batter of the game and it was
a squib hit, popping over first
base.
The Aggies won Friday’s first
game, 6-4, and the first game
Saturday, 3-2.
Aggies’ Injury-Riddled Track Forces
Falter In Laredo’s Border Olympic Meet
By BILL HENRY
[Bittalion Sports Editor
Although very few points were
Iscored by Texas A&M’s track
mm in Laredo’s Border Olym-
Ipics, coaches Charlie Thomas and
lied Nelson feel things are look-
ling up.
The Aggies scored only 27
[points to finish sixth in the 10-
[team university field which was
[convincingly won by the Texas
|Longhorns with 164 points. Rice
|was second, 70 points behind,
[with 94. SMU, Baylor and North
[Texas finished ahead of A&M,
[while Lamar, Houston, TCU and
[lech fell behind.
"We have had our share of
I injuries and illness this season
hot most of the kids are well and
[ starting to get in shape,” Thomas
said after the meet. “We’ve got
some talent but getting into shape
has been the toughest part. We
didn’t let our kids run all out in
some events, hoping not to get
any re-injuries, but we’ll start
this week working on our sprints
and individual events.
“I look for us to start winning
events this week and for our in
dividual performers to start im
proving.”
Texas won the meet with both
tremendous depth and some out
standing individual efforts. The
Longhorns scored in every event
including five first places.
It was the first title for Texas
at the Border since 1968 as they
upended defending champion
Rice. The Owls had six first place
winners but couldn’t compete
with Texas’ depth.
An example of Texas’ depth
was in the 880-yard run when
it finished 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in the
event which John Powell of Rice
won.
A&M’s best performances were
second place finishes from Scotty
Jones in the 120-yard high hur
dles and Ben Greathouse in the
high jump. Both were beaten by
Texas performers.
A big disappointment for A&M
in the meet was in the mile re
lay. Horace Grant, Harold Davis
and Willie Blackmon ran the first
three legs and were in the thick
of it, in fact Blackmon was lead
ing after the third leg, but Doug
Brodhead, ailing and suffering
from the lack of work the prev
ious week, couldn’t keep up with
the fast pace on the final lap and
fell to fifth.
Another disappointment was in
the shot put where Craig Carter
failed to qualify for the finals
as all three attempts were dis
qualified for stepping out of the
ring.
The biggest disappointment and
the one that had the crowd of
3,500 spectators abuzz in the
beautiful warm winter-night was
the non-qualification of SWC
champion Willie Blackmon in the
880-yard run. Blackmon, using a
strategy of holding back in the
pack then making his move with
about 220 yards to go, got boxed
in the pack and couldn’t break
out, thus finishing third in the
preliminaries with a time too
slow to qualify for the night’s
finals.
Texas Southern defended its
title and gained its 12 th title
since the meet began with 139V6
points. Howard Payne was second
with 80 and Dallas Baptist fin
ished third with 6414 in the small
college division.
The Aggies return to meet ac
tion Saturday when they host a
quadrangular meet with Rice,
LSU and Houston in Kyle Field
beginning at 2:30.

In Friday’s first game, A&M
opened up with four runs the
first inning but let the Cyclones
catch up in the fourth. In the
bottom of the fifth, the Aggies
struck for two runs to take the
win. JC transfer from San Ja
cinto, Jimmy Juhl, won the con
test in relief replacing Binks in
the fifth.
Leadoff batter Paul Miller led
hitters that first game with two
and scored a run. Jim Hacker had
a double and scored twice as did
Sandy Bate with a triple. Catcher
Tommy Hawthorne knocked in
two runs with a bases-loaded
single in the first inning.
In that 1-0 second game, five
hits were garnered by the Aggies
compared to the single leadoff
hit for the Cyclones. No Aggie
got more than one hit in the con
test but Frazier scored the lone
run.
In Saturday’s opener, A&M
struck for 12 hits compared to
only six for the visitors, though
the game was tied 3-3 until the
bottom of the 10th inning. A&M
pitchers served up six walks
which the Cyclones capitalized on.
Frazier and centerfielder John
A&M Golf Team
Falls At Border
Houston pulled a mild upset
Saturday by defeating Ben Cren
shaw-led Texas in the Border
Olympic Golf Tournament.
The Longhorns led by two
strokes going into Saturday’s
round but fell to the Cougars’
balanced attack by eight strokes
thus falling 1142-1148 in the 72-
hole event.
A&M finished 48-over par,
1204, capturing eighth in the
large field. North Texas was
third with 1183, Lamar fourth at
1186, Texas Tech with 1195, SMU
at 1199 and Houston Baptist with
1203 all finished ahead of A&M.
Crenshaw, as expected, defend
ed his medalist title well in shoot-'
ing a 14-under par round of 274
eight strokes ahead of Keith
Ferguson of Houston at 282. The
Cougars five golfers finished
second through sixth in medalist
play which gave them the crown.
The Aggies had no one in the
top twenty medalist scores. The
next match for A&M will be
March 30, 31 and April 1 when
it is entered in Austin’s Morris
Williams Invitational.
Woods led the team with two
hits each. Reliefer Bobby Witt-
kamp was the winning pitcher
although freshman Clint Thomas
pitched six and one-third innings
allowing three runs on five hits
but struck out eight.
In the final series game, both
teams had four hits but it was
doubles by Reinarz and Mike
Schrader that supplied the dam
age in the 3-2 victory.
Charlie Jenkins was awarded
the win allowing four hits and
two runs while striking out seven.
Wittkamp was awarded a save.
Including the 5-2 record achiev
ed in Florida, A&M now stands
9-2 while Iowa State slumped to
2-6, both victories coming against
Houston during the Cyclones’
swing south for good weather.
Jacks, short for jackstones,
once was played with pebbles
instead of t o d a y’s six-legged

What he needs,

Frankie Covello’s mother works in a hospital. She puts in a lot of overtime.
So Frankie takes care of his five brothers and sisters.
Frankie never met his father.
Last summer, he and three buddies got arrested for stripping cars. He got
off with a probation and a warning. Next time it’ll be the state reform school.
Frankie’s mother loves him, but he needs someone to talk to. Man to man.
Someone who thinks there’s more to life than gang fights, pushing drugs
or rolling bums.
Someone like you.
We know lots of fatherless kids like Frankie who need you. And we know
a lot of other people who need you, too. Guys in veterans’ hospitals. Unwed
mothers. Old people. Blind people. Patients in mental institutions.
If you can help, even for a few hours, call your local Voluntary Action
Center, or write to: “Volunteer,” Washington, D.C. 20013.
